Thread: Help out Thunderheart Poll on Slicing experimentation
After alot of thought and discussion in the debate thread, i am gonna have to go with No Experiementation on Slicing. While my mind was changed on Spices, slicing does not havetheneed, or the same reasons, to have this aspect added to it. It will not encourage compitition, only raise the investment to all be the same.
It does not have the potential for diveristy that Spice does.

Hmm... I counted
A: 43
B: 55
(didn't count bpphantom's vote since I don't know what he wanted to vote)
I'll recount...
___Ivann Bezerker- 12point Master Weaponsmith / Master Smuggler___Also, wanting to know if WuKs will get labeled as "contraband", this might be something we want to know.
Getting al the experimentation points for knives/AukS/clamps would require you to be a master Armorsmith/Master Artisan/Master smuggler. I didn't check but i think it can be done skill points wise, it would just eat up all of them...

Hate to say it, but this is gonna jack slice prices right up (which is great) but the economy is gonna go right down, armorsmiths and weaponsmiths will not sell multiple guns when people can know whether or not they will get the slice they want or if it will be a good slice.
However, if at a master level, if they give you an option to ATTEMPT to slice for damage or speed, and then the quality of the clamps and knives, not the AUK's or WUK's, determines if you do slice for what you want at a good level. If you fail its a bad slice, and being damage or speed at that point is random. This way you are trying to get a good slice, which masters should be able to do, and you do not have to pay generous amounts for AUK's and WUK's, and still stays true to the fact that we arent banging the item against something till it changes, we can and know how to try to get what we want, but occasionly fail. For example, lets say I have 95% eff on both my clamps and knives, and attempt to slice, being a master smuggler. Now I first choose whether or not I am slicing for damage or speed, then I slice. Being that my tools are 95% effective, 95% of the time they will perform as I expect. Now the clamp's eff determines whether or not what I choose is what I get, and the knives determine how good of a slice I get. As for the AUK's and WUK's, staying true to being a smuggler, we just grabbed some parts from the local armorsmith or weaponsmith that we needed. As for the slice ranges, make the ranges for master have very little varience, as in 30-35%, where as a person with slicing one would have a lower range, with a higher variance, something like 10-22%. Any other thoughts anyone? (gotta run, its getting busy at work
